Ever wonder what you would do if you haven't a toilet when you are in need? and outdoors at the same time? We hope you haven't, as our mission is to help you find what you need for your portable outdoor toilet needs.

What types of Portable Camping Toilet are there?

How do Portable Toilets dispose of the waste? Or keeps clean? There are basically two types, one that flushes with water, another type that degrades the waste using chemicals. But there are some other simpler kinds with no flush, examples: A lug-gable Loo Portable Toilet W/Bucket (used with chemical deodorant, chemical waste digester, biodegradable toilet tissue), or simply a fold-able toilet with a holding bag.

Here are some categories of Portable, Outdoor Toilets:

Camping Portable Toilet, Waterless Portable Toilet, Chemical Portable Toilet, Electric Portable Toilet, Boats Portable Toilet, Eco-safe Portable Toilet, RV Portable Toilet, Travel Portable Toilet, Large Portable Toilet

Parts of a portable toilet

Flushing Mechanism (for water flush portable toilets) - common terms you will encounter are piston pump, bellows pump.

Holding Tank - Fresh water tank, Waste tank

Seat Cover and lid Carry Handle (varies)

Things to look out for while purchasing a portable toilet

How many Gallons?

Different brands, types of portable toilet comes with different sizes of fresh water holding tank and waste water holding tank.

Easy Carry Around & Storage: Size of Portable Toilets

What makes portable toilets so useful? The fact that it is easily moved around with little hassle is the main attraction. Therefore, the size and weight of toilets is a major consideration. Usually, the more gallons it can hold, the bigger the size. Consider if you need more capacity as this will be accompanied by a bigger size portable toilet. We compared three different portable camping toilets as below:

Brand one: Width 14.5 in, Depth 16.5 in, Height 15.5 in 3 gallon Freshwater tank and 5 gallon waste water tank

Brand two: Width 15 in , Depth 16 in , Height 8 in 2.6 gallon Freshwater tank and 2.6 gallon waste water tank

Brand three: Width 15 in , Depth 16.5 in , Height 16.5 in 4 gallon Freshwater tank and 5.5 gallon waste water tank

Keeping the odor Sealed

This aspect is especially important if the portable toilet is to be kept in an enclosed area for a long period, for example while traveling on the road. Imagine odors wafting in and out? The thought is disagreeable, isn't it? If you are traveling on a recreational vehicle (RV) or you are a trucker, you may want to pick those that specifies sealed valve or mechanisms that helps to keep odor in the holding tank.

Waste Level Indicator, Water Tank level indicator

Some sellers does not specify if there are indicators of when you the clean water or waste water holding tanks needs to be refilled or emptied. Ask about this if you feel it's an important aspect of a good portable toilet.

Ease of cleaning, maintenance

Detachable parts, replaceable parts? Look out for these items. Also, look out for the flush mechanism specification, ask the seller how does the rinse work? Is it powerful?

Leak proof, one piece construction

This is especially important for holding tanks. And look out for the material used as well as thickness as we don't want them to crack under our weight!

New angled bodied solenoid valve from Alcon increase flow rates and reduce problems

Solenoid valve glands are designed to be maintenance-free, and 316 stainless steel is used in the body construction offering maximum internal and external protection form liquid and gases.

Designed for water, steam and corrosive fluid applications, Alcon has introduced the ASAST series of 316 stainless steel valves, offering improved life particularly in high temperature process applications. By directing the flow of fluids and gases under the valve seat, the angled body design promotes higher flow rates while eliminating traditional problems associated with water hammer, helping to prolong the operating life of the valve and ensuring a smoother delivery of fluid.

Alcon has applied over 50 years experience and used state-of-the-art materials in order to maximise performance and minimise maintenance of the new extreme environment ASAST valves. Inert to all but a few obscure substances a PTFE (Teflon) is used in the main seal to maintain performance across a wide range of temperatures, allowing the valves to reliably control fluids and gases from –200 OC to +180OC (-328 ° F to +356 ° F).

Taking into account any future maintenance operations at the design stage, Alcon have angled the main body of the valve to reduce the height of the unit. This allows engineers in compressed air, packaging, water and paper processing industries to develop smaller, more compact systems with additional room for maintenance operations. Ease of fitting and maintenance has been further improved by the introduction of an optical indicator, which allows easy identification of valve position; the body of the valve can also be rotated 360 O for quicker status checking.

Remote control is achieved via 13mm BS21 or NPT port connections for single spring return or double acting compressed air piloting arrangements. Alternatively the solenoid valve bodies are designed for the attachment of Alcon 31 Series solenoid pilot valves for electronic operation. Control inputs can come from 12v, 24v, 48v, 110v DC sources or 24v, 110v, 120v, 220v, 230v, 50/60HZ AC supplies . The valves cater for pipe sizes from 13mm (1/2") to 50mm (2") and are available with NPT, BSP, Butt or Socket Weld fitting arrangements, high flow rates of up to 52.8Kv are possible using the 50mm (2") unit. Alcon ASAST series valves function reliably in external temperatures ranging from -10 ° C to +60 ° C (+14 ° F to +140 ° F).

Symptom: short coil life

Diagnosis: Excessive heat is typically the cause of short coil life. Heat can be generated by media temperature, ambient temperature, excessive voltage, or an incomplete magnetic circuit.
Remedy: Care should be taken to specify a coil insulation system capable of withstanding the various operating temperatures. Never energize a coil when it isn't in the plunger tube.

Most solenoid coils today are epoxy or plastic encapsulated. However, if a tape-wound coil is used, moisture or dust may cause premature failure.

Altogether, solenoid valves are reliable and easy to maintain. If they are installed properly and inspected thoroughly in a regular maintenance program, they should operate efficiently and with few problems.
